Sometimes called Priority Registration or Priority Enrollment

• There are State-Mandated Priority Registration groups such as Veterans, Foster Youth, EOPS, CalWORKs & DESP participants. By state law, these groups must be given priority over all other students.
• 人民瓜报 has also established College Priority Registration for other student groups. These groups may register after the state-mandated groups.
• Beginning in April 2014, all new students registering for Fall 2014 and beyond must complete Self-Guided Placement, orientation, and have at least a preliminary Ed Plan (3 core requirements) in order to have 鈥減riority registration鈥�.
• Students who have not completed the 3 core requirements will register later than those who have completed these requirements.
